I’m a little sleepy today, but it’s a good kind of tired caused by staying up late with an enjoyable book. Nothing compares to a satisfying volume in a beloved series of novels, but let’s see what else we can find:

Here are three more beautiful things from my past week:

1. I have, in the last week acquired four new pairs of underwear featuring Wonder Woman (or, at least, her logo), Minnie Mouse, Animal, and Cookie Monster.

2. The breadmaker finishes its cycle just as Rudi turns off the shower. By the time he nudges me out of bed, there’s a mug of loose-leaf tea and a still-warm piece of buttered bread awaiting me.

3. I came across some older strands of Christmas lights recently and Rudi strung them around the living room for me. The pink glow they emit is enough that I can turn off the other lights and still see my knitting.
